【21:00】
Bingo.
As expected.
Irin's expression didn't change.
Li Changge suddenly felt a chill on his back.
He didn't know if it was an illusion.
He subconsciously touched the back of his neck.
There was a bone-piercing chill between his fingers.
This made Li Changge seriously suspect that a new special effect had been inadvertently developed.
— — It was so realistic.
"Hmm?"
Old Pan raised his eyebrows.
His eyes widened slightly.
Old Pan was originally a little sleepy after a whole day of tossing and turning.
For some reason, the temperature in the surroundings dropped.
Old Pan silently took out "Harley Quinn's Good Friend", carried it on his shoulder, and stood to the side.
Irin turned around and glanced at Li Changge.
Li Changge frowned, his face showing the expression of an actor who didn't understand but thought it was awesome.
— — Ignorance is bliss.
Irin almost didn't need to switch to the spirit's vision to roughly guess what kind of ferocious expression the mother spirit lying on Li Changge's back must have at the moment.
He silently opened the apostle panel.
Irin glanced at it.
"What … do we do now?"
The atmosphere in the morgue was indeed strange.
Although Li Changge didn't know anything and was kept in the dark, he could faintly feel that the atmosphere in this morgue seemed to be more tense than the previous two morgues.
It was as if he was on the set of a supernatural movie.
Li Changge desperately suppressed his frightened emotions, otherwise, the special effect behind him would appear again.
If special effects appeared in this damned place, his emotions would probably be out of control. The special effects would never stop.
Irin chuckled.
He simply leaned against the corner of the wall.
"Wait."
Li Changge: "???"
Unexpectedly, Irin really took out his phone and silently browsed the web.
Old Pan idly rubbed the metal rod.
— — It felt good.
Irin saw Old Pan's actions, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he discreetly took a few steps away from Old Pan.
Li Changge was confused.
Fortunately, Irin did not make him wait too long.
Ten minutes later.
Irin's expression was calm. She put away her phone and began the next step.
Although he didn't know what would happen next, Old Pan quickly straightened his back.
Irin found that name among the many cryogenic chambers.
— — The name of the dead.
The surrounding air became even colder and more bone-piercing.
Li Changge shuddered.
As Irin made her next move, Li Changge could not help but scratch the back of his head.
He suddenly felt as if someone was behind him, kicking the back of his head. He didn't know why he had such an illusion.
Irin's movements were slow and gentle.
He pulled out the cryogenic chamber of the "third" victim.
Hiss — —
In an instant.
Behind Li Changge, a terrifying wave of energy surged.
In his perception, Irin could not distinguish whether the terrifying wave of energy was sadness, anger, or some other unknown emotion.
But almost at the same time that Irin pulled out the cryogenic chamber, he directly pulled out the spirit in the Blood Jasmine, Bai Xiaoyi.
Bai Xiaoyi's temperament changed this time and she did not have any objections.
The moment she appeared, her expression froze.
Irin's hand maintained the posture of pulling out the corpse from the cryogenic chamber and switched to Bai Xiaoyi's "shared vision" as quickly as possible.
After changing the vision.
Under Yi Lin's gaze, behind Li Changge stood a white-robed, black-haired man. His eyes were as black as ink and cold as ice as he silently met Yi Lin's gaze.
"From now on, let the world feel pain!"
As soon as the voice fell.
Bai Xiaoyi's almost transparent spiritual body trembled slightly without leaving a trace.
And the mother spirit behind Li Changge trembled, and in the next second, she directly spun in circles on Li Changge's back.
A few seconds later.
The mother spirit came back to her senses, and her black eyes emitted boundless evil thoughts!
ComboX2！
"…"
ComboX3！
"…"
…
"Sob sob sob —"
"Tsk, can you stop crying?"
Irin pointed at the mother spirit on Li Changge's back and was speechless.
He saw that the terrifying looking mother spirit, after eating a round of "three consecutive disasters", actually squatted on Li Changge's back and sobbed.
This sudden change caught Irin off guard.
However, there was a language barrier. Seeing that Irin spoke, the mother spirit seemed to cry even more sadly and miserably.
[Spirit] —
It came from the Inner World.
In every Inner World trial, the language used was not necessarily the same.
But apostles had a registered identity, so no matter which language it was, it could automatically be converted to the most familiar mother tongue. So in the Inner World, there was no such thing as a language barrier.
However.
The mother spirit behind Li Changge, because the previous apostle master died in the Reality, directly became a lonely ghost.
— — -er, to be precise, it should be a lonely mother spirit.
In short, this mother spirit lost her identity as a "registered spirit".
Bai Xiaoyi lightly patted the mother spirit's shoulder to comfort her.
She also sympathized with her.
She knew that this feeling was not good.
Not to mention, the mother spirit directly ate three consecutive hits from Irin without enough experience.
It was simply heartless.
"…"
Irin expressionlessly put Bai Xiaoyi away.
Li Changge shrunk his neck, his expression was indescribable.
Although he couldn't see the mother spirit on his back, Bai Xiaoyi was floating behind him, so he could see her. He didn't know what the "female ghost" that hammered him over and over in Mount Haunt was doing on his back.
Irin didn't say, and Li Changge didn't dare to ask too much.
But that bone-piercing cold illusion had inexplicably vanished, and it made him feel much better.
I wonder if it's just an illusion?
Why did he feel like there was a faint cry of grievance in his ears?
Yep, it must be an illusion.
An illusion.
Irin quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Although the mother spirit's reaction was a bit unexpected, it was still much better than Irin's other records.
Irin's worst-case scenario was that Li Changge died on the spot when the mother spirit exploded. This was a bit regretful.
Irin even made the final preparations to decisively leave with Old Pan.
After all, he and Li Changge weren't close enough to risk their lives for this guy.
At worst, after this, he would just mourn for Li Changge.
Irin temporarily let the mother spirit continue to cry.
After putting away Bai Xiaoyi, Irin's almost depleted Psionic Energy Value finally slowly recovered.
Irin had already calculated the consumption of Psionic Energy Value in advance.
He had just taken a ten-minute break to browse the web. In addition to browsing the news of Haiting City, it was more important to recover Psionic Energy Value.
It was more reliable to be able to use Triple Disaster in one go.
Old Pan's account was half destroyed.
But his attribute points didn't decrease.
He also felt that the gloomy and cold atmosphere not long ago suddenly became … a bit strange.
But at the same time, Old Pan also felt that this morgue didn't seem to have a sense of crisis. He put away "Harley's Good Friend" and yawned.
Okay, let's get down to business again.
In fact, when Irin found the mother spirit's previous owner, it was meaningless to look at the body in the cryogenic chamber.
As long as he knew the identity of the apostle, the next step was to find the original body of the Spiritual Attachment weapon left behind by the apostle before his death. This should be able to solve the problem.
In principle, if the apostle died in the Inner World, the Spiritual Attachment weapon would also disappear with the apostle.
But if the apostle died in the real world …
It was a bit different.
If some of the apostle's relics were not recovered in time, it was very likely that unpredictable changes would occur and become the real world's —
"abnormality."
This was also one of the main business areas of the "Mystic Group."
Having said that.
At this moment, Irin thought of another thing.
Another piece of information was obtained from the two Pudong District policemen.
— "Haiting City Serial Murder Case."
The mother spirit's previous owner, as an apostle, dying … was not strange.
After all, apostles were also human, and there would always be times when they were accidentally killed.
However, if this victim was one of the victims in the serial murder case, Yi Lin couldn't help but think about it.
Was someone hunting apostles?
Or was it —
Irin's expression suddenly became a bit more serious.
While thinking, Irin completely opened the cryogenic chamber.
Click, click, click.
In the cryogenic chamber, there was a girl with a pale face. Her facial features were delicate, but there seemed to be a trace of anger and unwillingness hidden between her eyebrows.
Of course, the emotions read from this expression could also be made up by Irin's own imagination.
Her figure … was average.
But this was not important.
Irin continued to observe the body.
On the chest of the deceased, there was a long and narrow wound, and the blood around the wound had already been cleaned.
The edge of the wound was sharp, and the murder weapon should be …
"A sword? Or a knife? "
At this moment.
No one knew.
When Irin saw this corpse with his own eyes, there seemed to be some existence in the dark, watching this world through "Irin's" eyes.
Watching this dead apostle's body.
All of a sudden!
Just as Irin closed his eyes to imagine the scene in which this young apostle was killed, the "Death Brand" on his chest suddenly became hot, like a piece of soldering iron, fiercely sizzling on his chest.
The pain pierced his heart!
Wait!
This was — —
The summoning of the trial?
Irin's face was twisted in pain, and he was sweating all over.
The familiar pain, the familiar feeling.
But it was not a reasonable time!
He had clearly just come out from the Inner World!
This — —
This was not scientific!
At the same time.
Li Changge suddenly had a pained expression on his face. He covered his buttocks with both hands and rolled crazily on the ground, twitching as he did so.
Old Pan looked at the two of them with a strange expression.
Irin's performance was fine.
But Li Changge … Why was he covering his buttocks?
A few seconds later.
A mission notification appeared in front of Irin.
This was a mission notification that had appeared in the real world!
…
[Now issuing a mandatory reality mission.]
[Area: Tower of Death.]
[Location: Chidragon, Haiting City.]
[Mission Restriction: Second-stage apostle.]
[Difficulty: Unknown.]
[Reality Mission: Completely destroy the apostle (ID:????), Zhang Huichun.]
[Time Restriction: 72 hours.]
[Mission Failure Punishment: 10000 Death Points deducted. If the Death Points are insufficient … Obliterated!]
[Mission Reward: Unknown, awarded according to the final mission contribution.]
…
Irin: "!"
Li Changge: "!"
Old Pan: "?"
Haiting City: "…"
A mandatory reality mission?
"Don't come over!"
Irin reacted in an instant. His pupils constricted, and he shouted, wanting to stop Li Changge and Old Pan.
But when he turned around and saw Li Changge lying on the ground, covering his buttocks and sweating profusely, he suddenly understood.
Oh, so Li Changge's Death Mark was there.
Oh, no, it should be … too late.
This was a reality mission that he couldn't refuse.
Li Changge got up from the ground with difficulty.
That pain, no matter how many times it came, made Li Changge feel like a virgin. It was a different feeling.
"What's going on? Boss, this — "
Li Changge also received a series of strange mission notifications. His face was full of shock.
This was reality!
It wasn't the Otherworld!
But why —
Why would they issue a so-called "mandatory reality mission"?
This script was wrong!
Director, I want to protest! I want to quit!
Unfortunately —
There were no NGs this time.
"Could it be …"
Irin's expression was uncertain.
He was thinking of countermeasures … and the reason for everything.
Was it because of Li Changge?
No, this matter wasn't that simple.
Irin also didn't expect. He originally just wanted to solve the supernatural incident that happened to Li Changge, but he didn't expect to be unknowingly involved in an even stranger vortex.
"Shut up, don't talk, and don't move."
Irin didn't answer Li Changge's question.
He directly made Li Changge quiet down.
Li Changge: "…"
A countdown appeared on the apostle panel.
A 72-hour countdown.
At the same time, he silently looked at the remaining Death Points.
[Death Points: 5,782]
— This was quite uncomfortable.
The penalty of 10,000 Death Points didn't seem much, but it was just right at the door of life for a second stage apostle.
For a first stage trial, the basic reward was only 1,000 Death Points.
When passing the trial, depending on the difficulty and rating, the reward might range from 1,000 to 1,500 Death Points.
But no matter who it was, under normal circumstances, to obtain more than 10,000 Death Points in a second stage apostle …
— It was very difficult.
Unless, they wantonly slaughtered apostles and looted the rewards.
Irin opened the cryogenic chamber and turned the corpse over and over again.
One fatal move.
The chest that pierced through the heart was a fatal wound.
Was it because of strength?
Or was it because of an assassin-type apostle like him?
Li Changge covered his mouth as he watched Irin turn the corpse over and over again. His eyes were wide open.
— What a beast!
Irin didn't know what Li Changge was thinking at the moment.
After checking clearly, he placed the corpse back in its original position, sealed the cryogenic chamber again, and pushed it back. At the same time, he silently said "rest in peace" in his heart.
No matter who the deceased was, under the situation where Irin didn't know who it was, disturbing the deceased's rest was originally wrong.
If they had a grudge against Irin, then it was a different story. It wasn't impossible to repeatedly whip the corpse.
After Irin was done.
He looked back and saw Li Changge staring at him with a strange look.
Irin couldn't help but slowly type a question mark.
“？”
…
…
Late at night.
Li Changge's villa.
Zhang Hanlu was already asleep.
The three of them left the Pudong District police station without alerting anyone and quietly returned to the villa.
Before leaving, Irin didn't forget to remove all traces of them breaking into the police station.
Anyway, the police station didn't lose anything, and the two old police officers were not in danger. Under the pressure of the serial murder case, the Pudong District police station shouldn't find anything.
Along the way, Irin could faintly hear the almost non-stop sirens from everywhere.
A serial murder case?
Irin smiled helplessly.
It was originally just an ordinary supernatural incident.
It was just an ordinary mother spirit that was on Li Changge's back.
Yet, it involved such a matter.
"This case will definitely be taken over by the 'Anomaly Group' in the end."
Without a doubt.
The three of them silently returned to Li Changge's room.
After returning to the villa, Irin's psionic energy value had mostly recovered.
He casually summoned Bai Xiaoyi, and Bai Xiaoyi happily floated around the room.
Irin hesitated for a moment, and then summoned Nie Hongxiu.
The moment the two spirits appeared in the room at the same time, Li Changge's expression changed dramatically. He suddenly remembered the fear left over from the night on Haunted-mist Mountain.
"My name is Nie Hongxiu. Greetings, sir."
The moment Nie Hongxiu appeared.
Red clothes, white hair, and calm white eyes seemed to bring an indescribable ethereality to this space.
After becoming a spirit, Nie Hongxiu no longer had the terrifying deterrence of a "ghost". Instead, she had a bit of an otherworldly aura.
"F * ck!"
Li Changge originally thought that Irin had only taken in Bai Xiaoyi, but he didn't expect that even Nie Hongxiu had become Irin's spirit.
"Boss, please accept my kneeling!"
After recovering from the shock, Li Changge hugged Irin's thigh and shed tears of envy.
Irin: "?"
"Boss, you're the legendary mother and daughter … What's the meal?"
"Get lost."
Bai Xiaoyi: "?"
Nie Hongxiu: "?"
Irin kicked Li Changge away.
Although Nie Hongxiu didn't say anything, she seemed to be slightly happy that Irin was able to let her out to get some fresh air.
She looked around a little embarrassedly, and she curiously examined the world outside Haunted-mist Mountain.
Irin glanced at Nie Hongxiu and saw that the corners of her mouth were slightly curled up. He also felt a little guilty.
It seemed that after returning from Haunted-mist Mountain, he rarely summoned Nie Hongxiu.
But most of the time, he used Nie Hongxiu's ability to "change forms" to attach to weapons.
Well, let's talk about it later.
Irin didn't dwell on this matter for too long.
After all, two creatures could "summon spirits" at the same time. Ah, this was double the joy … No, it was double the consumption of psionic energy.
Irin shared his vision with Bai Xiaoyi.
She saw that the mother spirit behind Li Changge still seemed to be crying.
However, its shoulders didn't seem to be heaving that much.
From time to time, it would secretly raise its head and look at Irin.
In its pitch-black eyes, there was a faint trace of fear through the long hair that covered its face.
"It's quite troublesome because of the language barrier."
Irin glanced at it and felt a headache.
However, the mother spirit's appearance shouldn't threaten Li Changge's life for the time being.
At least, it wouldn't for the time being.
As for whether it would suppress Li Changge at night, that wasn't what Irin was worried about.
After all, he wouldn't die even if it suppressed him, right?
After confirming that the mother spirit behind Li Changge wouldn't cause trouble for the time being.
Irin also told him his guess.
Unexpectedly, when Li Changge heard that there was a "female ghost" behind him, he almost burst out with the grave's special effects and the sound of the suona.
"What the f * ck? Boss, are you kidding me? I, I, I have a ghost behind me? "
Irin corrected him seriously, "It's a spirit."
Li Changge raised his head silently.
He glanced at Bai Xiaoyi and Nie Hongxiu, who were floating in the air without physical bodies. In an instant, the sound of the suona in their ears became even more cheerful.
Li Changge said with a sad face, "Isn't that the same?"
"This is really a little different."
Irin was helpless. In order to appease Li Changge's emotions and avoid being confused by the messy special effects, Irin could only tell Li Changge in detail about "spirits" and "ownerless spirits".
After listening.
Li Changge …
He was dumbfounded.
"So that's how 'spirits' come about?"
But after listening to Irin, the existence of spirits was more like a projection of the Otherworld in the real world, which made him feel less afraid.
Human beings were always fearful of the "unknown".
But as long as he could talk it through, that little bit of fear became worthless.
"Wait."
After coming to his senses, Li Changge couldn't help but frown. "Then the … reality mission I just received, what's that? What does it have to do with this ownerless spirit? "
"And …" Li Changge pointed at Old Pan. "Why is he fine?"
"I told you he was crippled."
Old Pan: "…"
At this moment.
Irin felt a slight vibration from the Brand of Death.
